THE MANAGERS
AMANDA DOAMARAL — @amanda_rachel
Amanda is a senior in the School of Education, majoring in Social Studies Education. She has lived in Massachusetts her whole life, growing up in the burbs of Boston. She listens to all kinds of music (seriously, my playlists are all over the place), watches way too many TV shows, loves Boston sports, has embraced her coffee addiction, and travels as much as possible (Eurotrip anyone?). She is a history nerd, but is okay with it. Fun fact: By the end of this semester, Amanda will have worked 200 events at BU Central (oy).
REESE LICHTENSTEIN — @thelastlstein
Reese is a junior in the School of Education, double majoring in English and English Education with a tentative concentration in Linguistics. She has lived in MA her whole life and will probably never leave unless she can find somewhere less humid in the summer. She likes Remember the Titans; the 4th, 6th, and 7th Harry Potter books; City Year; and arts and crafts… but really hates grammatical errors and humidity.
JAKE COX – @jakewcox
Jake is a sophomore in the School of Management, with a tentative concentration in Marketing. He was raised in northern Virginia, just outside of DC. His taste in music is varied, but his favorites include: The Born Ruffians, ACDC, Shad, The Bravery, Astronautalis, Biggie, and Cake. A closeted nerd, Jake’s favorite day of the week is Wednesday, when new comics are released (DC > Marvel. Except for Daredevil. That guy’s OK.) Apart from music and comics, Jake’s loves include wrestling, hockey, movies, and photography.
THE VENUE STAFF
TIM DUFFY
Tim is a senior in CAS majoring in Computer Science. He was born and raised in New Jersey, but is far less orange than the cast of Jersey Shore. He listens to every genre of music (especially techno) but is really a rocker at heart. Some of his favorites include Nine Inch Nails, Les Claypool, Stanton Moore, and The Mars Volta. Tim loves to watch anything on [adult swim], Alice in Wonderland, and Hitchcock films. He is the president of BU’s Juggling Club and you may have seen him juggling in Marsh Plaza or on the BU beach.
MATT DUFFY — @mduffy52
Matthew Duffy is a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, majoring in Economics & Mathematics. He performs improv comedy with Boston University’s Liquid Fun and is a Co-Executive Producer for BU Tonight. As an aspiring comedian, Matthew will likely pose as a college student for the next thirty-two years just to retain this job.
DREW BARBARELLO
Drew is a junior in CAS, double majoring in Math and Computer Science. He was born and raised on Long Island, NY, and has remained a dedicated Islanders fan through tough times and tougher times. He’s also a big fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Drew loves all kinds of music from Stevie Ray Vaughan to Bruce Hornsby to the Smashing Pumpkins, and can be spotted playing guitar at BU for Show.
LANIE PADBURY — @laniepearl
Lanie is a sophomore in CAS studying everything from architecture to economics. She comes from a tiny island off the coast of Washington state that is only accessible by boat or plane. She loves sports of all sorts, whether it is playing them or watching them. She also loves food, eating it and cooking it, especially certain phylo-dough treats from her homeland of Greece. Lanie also has a slight obsession with arts and crafts of any type. She listens to music from every genre imaginable. She has had a lifelong obsession with Britney Spears that will never die out but has recently matured to the likings of Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens, and a Seattle-native hip-hop artist, Macklemore.
JOSH CRAMPSEY — @2lost2survive
Josh is a sophomore in COM, majoring in Advertising and minoring in Sociology and Dance. He hails from the sales tax-free land of Delaware and rarely ventures into states that don’t touch the Atlantic Ocean. He watches a ridiculous amount of television, is said to have a ridiculous personality, and incorporates dance into his daily life in ridiculous ways. Swedish pop star Robyn owns the key to his heart. A recently ignited passion for the ukulele may potentially get in the way of his studies.
SHERELLE ISAACS – @stephanieblews
Sherelle is a junior in SMG concentrating in Marketing and Finance. She is an Orlando, FL dweller (yes, next door to Disney World and Hogwarts) and a NJ native with a love for music of every sort. The way to her heart is through her stomach—preferably with any curry dish, in case you were wondering—and suffers from an extreme obsession with Tumblr and attending concerts. Check out her WTBU radio show You Had Me at Nerd on Mondays from 8-10pm!
MAGGIE PRICE – @magmp12
Maggie is a junior in the College of Fine Arts, majoring in graphic design and minoring in business. She is from Pittsburgh, PA and even though she’s not a huge sports fan, she’ll always root for the Steelers. Maggie loves art and design and you can most likely find her doing design work on her computer with a cup of coffee in hand and listening to music. She listens to anything and everything (seriously check her iTunes), is a lover of anything chocolate and is a huge Grey’s Anatomy fan.
